Sorry to bump this, but thought you guys might like an update. the trip to Texas was awesome, it was really wonderful seeing my dad again after so many years. When I gave him the lure, he melted, well actually, we both did, there was not a dry eye in the room, thank God Shannon was there so we would have to "man up" a bit and regain composure.
My dad collects die cast cars, he ended up taking one out of a display case and putting the pikie n that case on the top middle shelf. I felt that was an honor.
The wedding for Shannon and I went smooooth as silk and it was a great time for all the families, heck, my dad actually sat down and had a talk with my mom (they divorced when I was about eight years old) and there was no yelling. Wow, guess time does heal wounds.
Anyway, thank you so much for the kind words. that is what keeps Shannon and I building!
Tom
